In this gutsy, violent and enjoyable thriller Angel of Death, fans of clandestine espionage novels are in for a real treat in this riveting page-turner that segues from the Middle East to London, as James Ryker seeks out violent terrorist Ismail Karaman, a man who lives a very high profile life, is apparently untouchable, but is the head of a violent terrorist organisation known as The Syndicate.

Angel, known as the Angel of Death, is a former SIS operative whose life has been systematically destroyed by Karaman. She blames him and the corruption within the SIS for her demise into hard drugs and alcoholism, the loss of her husband and her daughter. She is not allowed to see her daughter and her husband has remarried.

She is recruited through a Health Retreat she attends as part of her rehabilitation program, to find and kill Karaman. But right from the beginning, although she is has agreed to be part of the three-person team for the money as well as the revenge, she feels something is not quite right.

Ryker is on the same trajectory; to find and eliminate Karaman once and for all. His first attempt goes terribly wrong, which once again sees him languishing in goal, needing to be rescued. The person that arrives to release him is someone he never thought to see in the ‘field’ and makes him wonder just how far the tentacles of the Syndicate spread.

After this debacle Ryker has decided he is better on his own, but finds himself having to rescue Angel from a murderous firefight, Karaman having escaped once again. As they have the same objective, they join forces to get the job done; to even the score and settle old debts.

It is a moot point as to who is the more violent, Angel or Ryker, as they work their way across Europe to take on the man himself on home turf. But will they succeed?

Fast paced and thoroughly enjoyable Angel of Death, the twelfth book in the James Ryker Series from Rob Sinclair, will have you in the action until the bitter end. What will Ryker take on next in his bid to make the world a better place? Time will tell!
